 * ** Pay attention to the quality of your presentation! **


 * Evaluate: **
 * 10. If you made any changes to your plan or story board, explain why you changed it: **
 * We accidently saved the butterfly first instead of the possum. **
 * ** Why did you change your plan? We changed our plan because of a simple mistake. It all turned out well in the end though! **

 * 11. How could you improve your movie? We could make it easier to follow. **
 * 12. Does your movie meet all the requirements? Yes **
 * 13. Share your movie with at least one friend. What did he/she like about your movie? Lucas said that he wanted to make love to it. (Obviously it is good!) (These are not our words) **
 * 14. Reflect on all the steps of the Design Cycle. What did you do well? What do you need to improve? **
 * ** Investigate: When thinking about it we discovered that our pictures were on ComicLIfe and not PhotoBooth but we investigated our solutions and picked the best. We could have made a tiny change in the story from our ComicLIfe to our iMovie. **
 * ** Plan: We planned out how we were going to get all of our pictures. We made a plan for every day so that we knew exactly what to do. We made sure that we did not behind. We could have remembered every part of our plan. (We forgot some of it! So we had to work extra hard one day to be able to make sure we stayed on track) **

We could have payed a tad bit more attention to Mrs. Bradfield when she was teaching so that we did not have to re-teach ourselves some things. **
 * <span style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0.5em; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 3em; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;">** Evaluate: I think that we did a pretty good job answering the questions honestly and thoroughly. **
 * 15. Were you responsible in using the software, Internet, pictures, and computer? Yes **

 * 17. Do you like using iMovie? Explain. I think that using iMovie is complicated and usually I don't like using it because it doesn't like me so it doesn't do what I tell it to. But sometimes it works out and I can understand what to do. **

 * Attitude **
 * 19. Reflect on your attitude on each step of the Design Cycle. Did you completely answer each step without complaining, being a whiny baby, or saying "it's too hard". Yes, I did, I didn't even think that it was that bad. I think that we had an amazing attitude through out the whole project. Tech is our favorite class so naturally we always have a good attitude. **
